I mean, as opposed to other businesses where owners expect customers to pay <100% of the costs of the product?

Indeed. And we all know how quickly radiologists are improving at their job. At this rate the 6% of AI systems that beat one radiologist will be down to 0% in no time.

How do you know that this is true?

IMDb is owned by Amazon. Amazon Prime shows IMDb ratings in its app.

I think you mean "overstated".

Before covid, worldometers was known for tracking population data!

And even if you do sell, they're taxed as capital gains instead of income.

The claim about typicality was to add addition information, not to speculate about this particular case.

The Boy Scouts of America did a lot to promote Leave No Trace and helped it become a common practice.

Because not caring is the default?

Well, if the tax rate is lower than the cost of running a large organized crime organization and trafficking the drugs into the country, then the legal price may still be lower.

There's also the fact that buyers ALSO care about the risk. Many people will only purchase drugs legally, if given both options.

> somehow make the body consume more energy from fat specifically

Any way to achieve a calorie deficit will accomplish this. There doesn't have to be a second drug to make your body use fat as energy once you've already given it no other choice.

Fun fact: not all humans can visualize things in their heads.

I mean, it's great to "not store state" until you get to the last part of your comment: "possibly a few custom parameters describing password rules for weird sites", plus it also needs to include things like the number times you've rotated the password for each site. The point of my question was to ask how well your implementation manages state across multiple machines, but if your answer is "it doesn't need to" then I just don't see how you can satisfy my requirements.

FWIW, and I'm not suggesting you actually do this, but you probably could learn to remember that many symbols. People can memorize thousands of digits of pi. People can solve ~60 rubik's cubes in an hour blindfolded (where they must first memorize them). I think, surprisingly, it's actually within the realm of human ability to memorize 200 20 character passwords.

Does this work across multiple machines? (Phone + laptop?)

I used to use a deterministic password manager, but switched to bitwarden because I wanted to be able to rotate (some) passwords sometimes and never found a great solution using a DPM.

Age demographics as well.

Why is it harder to remove them from ceramic pots?

And it doesn't help that popular sources are perfectly happy to just call things AI or RL and leave it at that. The popular discourse around AI sometimes sounds like "How do computers work? Programming. How does google work? Programming. How do games work? Programming." Like, they're not wrong, just too vague to be useful.

Hmm... One way that I look at it is evolutionary computation is an optimization strategy. It's characterized by tracking a population of candidates, discarding the lowest scoring, mutating the survivors, and cross-combining elements from multiple candidates.

RL is an optimization domain. It's the name of the problem, not the solution. You can straightforwardly use evolutionary algorithms on RL problems. However, a lot of the recent success in RL has come from using deep learning to try to solve various RL problems, not from trying evolutionary computation.

That's one of RL's traditional formulations, yes. Bandits problems are another one. They've been generalized together into POMDPs partially observable Markov decision processes.

I actually wouldn't see them as a scalper. I don't think it's just an equivalence. I've always been fine when looking around for a domain and one is taken but it's being used productively. The thing that feels annoying is finding a domain where the only thing it's being used for is as an advertisement for itself. It feels kinda like coming across a billboard that says "advertise here!".

The economist in me had to struggle to remember that if the prices are smart, it will lead to allocative efficiency. But it still feels a little ugly.

Certainly AlphaZero was run on very fast hardware and lots of it. Nevertheless, I think it shows that the days of "speed is all that matters" is over. It did substantially fewer evals than stockfish and still crushed it. LC0 is the same way. Neural network chess proved that a higher quality, much more expensive, eval (with a very high quantity baseline, to be sure) is a viable strategy for a chess engine.

- A simpler but much faster engine will beat a more complex engine any time because the advantage of another ply easily outweighs the advantage of some clever algo.

Tell that to AlphaZero
